Default Endless Summer Ocean City Oct 10-13

Well, I dunno about you guys but I know I didnt get enough this spring. Booking a room next week, heading up that Wednesday after work. Anyone else planing on heading up? If so what kinda meets you guys want to get together? This will be my first Oct show so im not quite sure how it all works, I just hear its alot more chill than spring.

Side note: I may be trailering my car this time, any suggestions? (i.e. trailer parking, dos and donts)

A friend of mine would trailer his car down and leave the truck and trailer in the Home Depot lot and just roll around in the car. October has a lot less vacation traffic which equates to more cruising/racing. The cops have caught on though.

Another plus about October is the ocean is still warm.

Sounds like my kinda party lol, Had alot of clean runs and got away with a burnout or two in the spring ticket free... probably gonna be a little more on the conservative side this time around... dont wanna end my season with a ticket

The better of the 2 shows if ya ask me. Less congestion and the weather is always cooler which is a lot better for cruising.
With any luck my car will up and running and I can make it or else this will be my first year missing both shows....that would suck for me.

The fall show always seems extremely dead to me until friday around 5-6pm. im assuming everybody gets off woork on friday and just heads down then. Its still fun though especially at night. As for parking a trailer I would check out some of the big shopping centers on the southbond side of coastal after the food lion parking lot. Thats where ive parked mine at before and theres plenty of others and weve never been bothered or had any of the businesses say anything.

Sounds like a plan, yea that was kinda my thought process with getting up there early, have some time to relax and enjoy the beach itself before the action starts, wish id have taken the whole week for the spring show

Anyone know of good hotels or rooms with covered parking? I haven't been to OC cruise in 3 years, can't wait to head up there again.

still working on our reservations, the best place to be in my opinion is somewhere up by wawa and away from all the boardwalk congestion. I cant vouge for fall though, spring it was a hectic mess though being on the boardwalk

I personally think the fall cruise is better than the summer. There's also less drama with the police. It seemed like every diesel truck that was in OC this summer was there just to attention *****.

But I digress.

There are some really good deals to be had, but reserve early.

Never been to OCMD but a friend of mine is thinking about having a bachelor party here... We are from NY so we don't know much about OCMD. Is it warm enough to hit the boardwalk in Oct???
